Hey Stephanie, check this one out: (reposted from a Yahoo NYC environmental activist group)
From: Joel Meyers <meyersjoel@y...> Date: Sat Aug 16, 2003 11:53 am Subject: Help plan/organize 9/11 protest.
All interested in planning, influencing and organizing the following event are invited to take part in a meeting at the Washington Square Trinity "Peace Church" (135 W. 4th St., bet. MacDougal St. and 6th Ave.) tomorrow, Sunday, August 17 at 6:30pm. The May 27 Coalition is considering an action to take place on the upcoming Thursday, 9/11/2003, to counter the lies, hysteria and genocidal war growing out of 9/11/2001.
At this point, what has been suggested is:
1) A rally at the Carlyle Investment Group, a major military procurement profiteer firm, which united for years the Bush family, the powers-that-be in the current Bush regime, and the demonized Bin Laden family/Saudi Oil interests,
2) Followed by a march to Union Square, which became a gathering place for discussion, debate and comeraderie immediately after 9/11/2001, when travel to points south of 14th Street was forbidden to people who could not show documents proving they lived or worked there.
Also contemplated is another action targeting the media as central accomplices to the Bush administration and the military/industrial and financial/corporate elite for which it fronts.
